A to Z Challenge – Quaint!

Posted on April 20, 2016 | 27 Comments

Quaint,
Catchy,
Turns of Phrase,
Used with panache,
Linger longer in the hearts and minds of people!

how quaint, E! I love it…our election system is quaint–but not as in “cute.” 🙂

    I think our system is “make it up as we go along”…the trumpet talking about rigged elections…ha! I do tend to think it is un-American to openly plan ways to deprive him of the nomination after so many idiots (er, voters) think they want him. . (Yes…devil’s advocate is right.)

      Hopefully, the American Electorate will reject him in the Final analysis…. 😉

        I hope so too, but I know a LOT of trumpets! My take on the NY primary results is that HC is clearly ahead, and on the face of it she has many times more votes than trump. I know apples and oranges, but

        hopefully…the scary thing about the trumpet is that he does not know anything about anything…that’s scary. But they say no one “likes” Ted…as if it was third grade or something. I think the trumpet would pull a bait-n-switch operation…which could mean anything. 😦

        Let’s hope the Dems do it again…even if it is a case of the ‘lesser of to evils’.;)

        I’m not sure that it is the lesser of two evils…although by nature two politicians almost always rival each other in the evil department.

        the scary thing is that the electorate doesn’t always get what they voted for…both of W’s terms were won by Dems (Kerry and Gore) but shenanigans were SO great we had an unelected pres. for 8 years.

    Ha! Maybe we need international observers a la “third world” countries that can’t be trusted.

      Some ‘First World’ countries behave like socalled ‘Third World’….more sophisticated, perhaps…. 😉

        the more educated and less-racist folks are starting to weigh-in now…not as much bully-boys.

        indeed. I like Bernie although he is a bit of a dreamer…Hillary, well she will continue Obama’s road…and I approve of that. When it comes down to it I don’t ever like any of them…their policies anyway.

great choice of words for this one 🙂 I had forgotten about quaint. It’s a great little word and I love the way you describe it by sneaking in some ‘Panache’ for dear ‘quaint’ 😉
